EASTON – Nearly three hundred seniors from Oliver Ames High School wore bright blue and gold tee-shirts to school Friday.

he tee-shirts have the words “Day of Kind’NESS” on the front and more than one hundred names on the back. It’s a tribute of community service to honor Devin Ness, an OA Senior and wrestling captain who died of an aneurysm last January.

This is the second year that the seniors, town businesses and many families have taken part in a day of volunteering. Friday morning students spent time raking leaves and mulching flower beds at the schools, washing fire trucks and police cruisers and taking part in other helpful services where needed.

More than 140 businesses from Easton and surrounding communities and many families donated money for scholarships that will be given out to graduating OA Seniors. Nearly $10,000 has been raised so far for scholarships.
